Easter Weekend

On Friday, I just slept late and ran a few errands. I got a pedicure and ran around town. We were planning to go to the Drive-in movie on Friday night, but decided against it since it was an hour away. We ended up going to see "Water for Elephants". Coy and I both read the book, so we were excited to see it. It was an alright movie, but the book is definitely better (like it usually is).

On Saturday, I cooked green bean bundles and dirty rice to bring to Coy's family Easter. They eat a big dinner and have an Easter egg hunt. Last year, we had a wedding shower with his family on that same day since everybody was together. This year one of his cousins had their wedding shower. I guess it's starting to be an Easter tradition.

On Sunday, we got up early and went to church. We were reminded that we should treat everyday with the same excitement that we have on Easter. Coy's grandparents weren't able to make it on Saturday, so we all went over to their house later that afternoon.

I made it through this Easter without eating any Cadbury eggs and without dying Easter eggs. While those things are fun, it's nice to be reminded about what Easter is all about.
